The Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program (ETEEAP) is an educational assessment scheme that recognizes knowledge, skills, and prior learning obtained by individuals from non-formal and informal education experiences.
By establishing equivalency competence standards and a comprehensive assessment system employing written test, interview, skills demonstration and other creative assessment methodologies, higher education institutions may administer competency-based evaluation.
A Panel of Assessors is convened to determine the candidate’s knowledge, skills and attitudes relevant to a particular discipline, and the administering higher education institution awards appropriate equivalency credit or academic degree to successful candidate.
